@farmingandJesus The age old story of the mote in the other’s eye.

Im shocked how many Christians actually think they are better than others because they sin different. I thought we all knew our sin is deserving of hell and only God is good. I thought we knew that. Wow

@allie__voss There's a place for a conversation/testimony the man posted. More appropriate for it to be between the woman and another woman than broadcast everywhere. I had an interaction with him on something different (still about scripture and culture) and he was completely tone deaf.

I understand people sharing their testimonies but honestly the internet is not always the place for this stuff Honoring your marriage and your spouse includes discretion about how you share intimate details

@InezFeltscher Nicely worded. People often consider insurance to be a maintenance policy rather than insurance for unknowns.

Yes. Insurance (risk based protection against future unknowable incidents) is not designed to cover things that have already happened and are certain to incur costs. Yes, this was a problem, but not one that can be solved by insurance. This is like signing up for car insurance the day after you crash and expecting them to pay out.

@farmingandJesus Maybe not but I'd agree it's projection to a certain degree or immaturity of faith combined with legalistic training.

I believe the men who shame repentant women for promiscuity before Christ have porn addictions.

@david_shane @HeidelbergTimP This is just MSU. I didn't include Michigan. In most states, the highest paid state employee is either the No. 1 Men's basketball coach or football coach.

@david_shane @HeidelbergTimP Everybody likes the $1.50 hot dogs.

Don't know how they're going to replace Izzo when he retires (which can't be too long now). He might very well be the single most prominent "employee" of the whole university, and has been for a long time.

@SydneyLWatson Wind. All property comes with free wind. A lot of wind.

Tell me about Wyoming. Where is the nicest, mountain-y part that's also not TOO FAR from civilization. I desire to buy many acres there and disappear into the wilderness.

If you want to crystalize the problems Democrats are having with young White men, consider, that, to the best of my knowledge, Sarah McBride is the only White Christian Democrat man under 40 in Congress.

@jaysonyork I think conferences are popular. I meant that your opinion might also be popular (at least reluctantly agreed upon by reasonable people).

@mes4icon Do you think conferences are popular?

Unpopular pastoral opinion #15 The over abundance of Christian conferences has: - undermined the importance of the local church - fed the Christian celebrity phenomenon - created a Christian tourism economy that could otherwise support local and worldwide ministries

@schotts @ghostofvangogh1 We have said this until we are blue in the face. If gun laws make states safer, CO would be the safest state in the US, NOT 7th highest for violent crime. It’s not rocket science….

@SqueakySays @Xenosmilus4 Without seeing the research, I'd guess that the maps from 1950 and 2016 for the US would be identical for the use of "splinter".

@mes4icon @Xenosmilus4 Those Newcastle types have always been a bit weird

@SqueakySays Thought you’d find this interesting.

@hey_mindi The point is not that $1 million is not a lot of money but that the CEO is paid well below CEOs in for-profit organizations. A lot lower.

@hey_mindi The lower paid jobs are in training positions where legal. Goodwill had $7 billion in revenue and spends as little as 7% on all operations putting the rest into its mission. CEO pay for a $7 billion operation? Below market value..

Did you know Goodwill made $2.1 BILLION in revenue last year? They pay executives 6-figure salaries. They pay workers sometimes less than minimum wage via a legal loophole. They get their inventory donated for free then sell it back to the public. The thrift store for “poor people” is one of the most profitable nonprofits in the country.

@SarahjevsEvans I knew nothing about this post other than it was irreverent and funny since you posted it. Lost a few minutes of my life looking into it and can confirm. Just deserts all around (except for kids). Would it have ever worked as the family business was named after an old girlfriend?
